Victron Phoenix Charger 24v /16amp and 12v Battery Bank

Hello, I own a Victron Phoenix 24v /16amp battery charger that I use to charge my 24v battery bank.

I want to use the 24v charger to charge my new 12v battery bank. Is there a Victron product that will help me do this?

Would a Victron ORI241225020 Orion 24/12-25A DC-DC converter IP20 Non isolated, work?

Or is there another product I can purchase without having to buy a separate battery charger for my 12v system


Thank you for your help

I assume this is an additional bank to the 24v bank.

since the Orion is practically the same price as an equivalent charger, its not the best way to go I guess. but it will work.

Do think about whether full isolation is required in your particular install.
